But not by the forward passes you scored from or the knock-ons you got away with ? if we got away with that then it was probably the only thing that went in our favour all afternoon !

| what an utter load of tosh, if the OP only cares for silverware then go and support wigan,warrington or leeds!
major dummy spit on their part after one bad game against a very good side who were red hot on the day.
fartown since 84?? im sure then you,like the rest of us who were around 20 years ago will accept we have come a very long way since the days of losing to Trafford,chorley and bramley? enjoy what where we are and if we do win silverware then enjoy it like we will, until then get behind the team!

| Fartown 84 If your so bleeding good at selling can I suggest the giants sales and marketing department!
I don't think 84 is to do with how long he/she has been supporting - if he/she had been around since then they wouldnt dream of using the word disgrace towards the team this year. perhaps 84 is how many teddies have gone out of the pram.
Disappointing yes- disgrace no chance.

| Guys
I have supported since 87 my birth year is 84. I did sit through some torid times but the fact is we are not there now and by our standards today not 60 years ago it is a disgrace to concede 40 points in a quarter final challenge cup tie when we are 2nd in the league. I could not give a toss about the post I am interested in the future and if all we can say its the best we have had since year dot we may as well pack up now.
How do you know I have not approached the Giants about selling for them ?
A question was raised about my field which is irrelevant the fact is I don't and I don't expect the Giants to fall away when it matters. Yes we have a decent side but I am sick of people saying never mind look where we have come from !
Rant over I just want success conversation closed !.

| We all do, but calling the team a disgrace because they have been beaten is harsh. They didnt play well, they know that, they didnt lose on purpose just to stop you seeing them win something......we are a decent side but Sunday showed how far from being one of the top sides we are - its frustrating that in the last 4 or 5 years we have been close but simply put we haven't been good enough yet.
We may well be this year we will have to see but all we can do is turn up and support them.
I understand your frustrations but stamping your feet and demanding success isn't going to help anyone.

i think we have already proved this season we are a top side.
infact id go as far to say im already pleased with this season no matter what happens, considering expectations at the start of this season i feel alot of people are forgetting and have small memories. look at the season ticket sales,no one gave a t*ss, thought we wouldne get in the top 8 now they expect a trophy!! joke

The giants players bigged themselves up in the press don't talk about it do it.
I still maintain we should not be conceding 44 points to anybody. Warrington have been beaten by some poorer sides but not whn it matters.
It is not about being better it is about having the desire to win when it counts. If we had have had that attitude and Warrington played well it would be a 6-8 point ball game.

Spot on - 3 days ago we had the possibility of winning all 3 available trophies, we can still win 2 of them and are 6 games away from being crowned the best team in Europe

Well if your field is irrelevant, why did you bring up your career and hinge your entire point on it?

| I can understand peoples disappointment at this result. After all the hype in the build up this was a very poor display even taking into account how well Warrington (were allowed) to play. My mate said we could win if we got our heads right. It's obviuosly a mental thing at the moment and if it doesn't get sorted then we will win nothing. We needed to make our intentions clear from the off like v Leeds at Odsal. I remember us pushing them back from the kick off and we never looked back. We are a better team now so we should expect better than what was served up on Sunday WHEN IT MATTERS. We did it v Leeds - why not v Warrington?
The performance was just not there.

i think you need to bring your expectations down a little. we are punching above our weight, even ken davy has stated that this season.
im just enjoying this season and currently being 2nd in the table, we could of only dreamed of this 10 years ago..longer infact!!
ofcourse id love to win something, and who knows we might yet, still in with a great shot of winning the league.

Would you rather the players said nah mate weve no chance when interviewd by the press?
Were Leeds fans calling their team a disgrace? Nope.
You are calling the players for having the wrong attitude- I would counter perhaps the attitude is rubbing off from fans such as yourself calling the team a disgrace or others scapegoating individuals. Wire fans doing so would probably inspire them to prove them wrong. It's probably difficult to have the attitude to win when YOUR OWN are pulling you down.

| Look this has gone further than I planned. The fact is I was and am upset on Sunday I don't think Warrington are really any better than us and showed more desire in minute 1, and then got all the 50/50 calls which is what happens when you get on top ! It was a complete disaster and I thought it was a disgrace we did not fire into them straight away !

| the chickens came home on Sunday we haven't respected the ball all year our pack as big as it is still is to soft but saying that this is the poorest super league for years i think we are 3rd best team in the comp the biggest difference is that we need to start doing the little things well get or d back to what it was against leeds in the cup keep hold of the ball and build pressure and our pack to stand up for its self for me bruno needs to up his game he seemed to be pulled out of position on Sunday and offers very little going forward

We seem to have aproblem mentally with Warrington does your comments mean your recent run of play off defeats mean your not as good as leeds.
Its just on anyones day they can beat anyone doesn't take away the fact I don't find it acceptable to concede 40 points.
